Join us for the second stage of peer group workshops with FocusME 2.0!

FocusME 2.0 is designed for women who have participated in FocusME previously, and will provide the opportunity for participants to dive deeper into topics including marketing, access to capital, hiring, and more. We look forward to having FocusME alumnae meet and form a new cohort, and become reinvigorated in the process.

IS FOCUSME 2.0 RIGHT FOR YOU?

  • Have you participated in a FocusME cohort?
  • Is your business up and running?

If you answered yes to both questions, FocusME 2.0 is right for you! We are looking for female entrepreneurs who are interested in continuing round-table discussions with a new cohort and new topics of conversation.

In order to ensure that the group is filled with businesses that are non-competitive and in similar stages of growth, the WBC will make the final recommendation with regards to participation. We will contact you to confirm your attendance and learn more about your business.

HOW DOES IT WORK? FocusME 2.0 will meet weekly for 9 facilitated sessions focusing on business and personal growth. FocusME 2.0 will introduce you to local business leaders and connect you to a broader network of services and fellow entrepreneurs.

EACH SESSION INCLUDES:

  • A facilitated group discussion with a focus on personal development (topics include: web presence, business structures, growth, business relationships, and more)
  • An opportunity to share business challenges and brainstorm solutions
  • A “My Turn” time which allows two participants each session to share a piece of their work and receive group feedback and accountability
  • Pairing of accountability partners to check-in with between sessions

WHO FACILITATES? The sessions will be facilitated by Leigh Tillman!

WHERE WILL FOCUSME SESSIONS BE HELD? FocusME 2.0 will be held virtually via Zoom.
